Hello Everyone,

I am a Dubai resident since 7 years now, and also an ex national sprinter; i have noticed that residents in Dubai can not practice/train for athletics/track and field competition due to lack of clubs, coaches and fields.
I am currently working on launching the first commercial club, with high level international coaches that can help kids, and seniors in developing athletics skills and potential as well as competing in local and international meetings.
Anyone interested?

Dubai Athletics

Hello "Dubai athletics", I should be soon in Dubai and I'm a national pole vaulter and an athletics coach (and also a physical trainer for many sports like football, rugby, golf, etc...). So as you can imagine, I'm much more than interested! Is there some news about a club?

Fantastic idea! I swear I was about to ask if there was a club exactly for this purpose. I'm an amateur sprinter (14 years old). I want to improve my skill but I don't know any places to do so. If I could recommend something, try and make the location in the centre of Dubai so it can be easily accessible to everyone.

Yes! Absolutely!

thanks for your interest, i advise you all to join this facebook page, i will start updating you on the next steps there: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dubai-Ath ... 2681883765

are you still searching for track and field coaches? I am a level 5 coach (level 7 in the european qualification system (master level) in The Netherlands (more than 30 years experience as a coach on national and international level. Last week, my wife and I visited Dubai (Arab health exhibition) and I was enthousiastic about the city and the friedly people. I am very curious about the possibilies to provide track and field training in Dubai.

johntmj , You sound very qualified, there are sometimes openings in prestigious schools over here looking for PE coaches, ie. Job security however depends on which school.

DubaiAthletics ,

Hi did this take off - where do you all meet ? Can you send me more details, or post an advert with number / email etc so I can get in touch. My daughter is hoping to get back ito Athletics she has a lot of talent just needs the right guidance.

thanks (urgent)

johntmj , are you here in dubai now or were you just visiting? we could potentially be loking for a coach for our daughter.

--- Mar 27, 2014 ---

prowheels , this is 1/2 the problem, the location of the only club that does exist (that i know of) is all the way in barsha, we live in mirdiff and it starts at 5pm (which isn't suitable for my working hours)

any suggestions?

We have just arrived in Dubai and have joined our 2 kids up with Ultimate Athletics based at Dubai Sport City. Have been very impressed so far.

Yes that would be a good idea
